Cute cottage up a small hill in a small cluster of houses a few miles outside Packwood. The fact that it has three bedrooms was important for us. The master bedroom is downstairs and is wonderful, the two other bedrooms are up a narrow spiral staircase that requires some caution, but these rooms are fine for both kids and adults. The house is a good base for exploring Mount Rainier National Park: the Sunrise and Paradise areas are about a 1 hour drive. Packwood itself has several restaurants and a decent supermarket. We enjoyed our stay and would gladly return to this cottage if we were to visit the area again.

I wouldn't like to carry a baby up the spiral staircase and one shouldn't have any mobility issues when staying upstairs. The wifi connection was good most of the time, but suddenly stopped late in the evening during 2 of our 3 nights here. There is good mobile reception for some networks, but apparently not for all.

We had a wonderful stay here! We especially appreciated the cabin's ability to stay cool, after many stays in Packwood over the years with subpar AC during heat waves. The cabin is incredibly well-stocked with just about anything you could think to need (dishware, spices & condiments, bathroom supplies). It's on a quiet street convenient to town & Mt. Rainier and the hosts are very available and helpful should you need something.

Our only things that could be improved upon were that the knives for cooking were very dull, which made it a little harder to prepare dinner, and the bed was so soft, which just isn't to our liking.

The setting for the cabin is spectacular and the host Mike, was beyond helpful and went the extra mile to make sure we were comfortable, including recommendations for our next stops. Highlight were sitting on the terrace with deer grazing nearby, and the views down the track from the breakfast table. Clean and well equipped, this is a smallish place, but plenty for the two of us. You'd want to put kids or more athletic group members up in the loft area because of the steps, but we stayed on the ground floor and honestly, could not have enjoyed it more. Close to Packwood and a range of walks nearby, wish we'd had a week instead of a few days and it still wouldn't have been enough.

Like I said, the steps up to the loft bedrooms are pretty adventurous, but if you don't need to get up in the night, or you're pretty handy on a spiral staircase, you'll be fine. We managed the driveway just fine if you follow Mike's instructions.

So cute! Great for a couple kids, and an additional 2 bedrooms, wow! All we could need was already there, super well stocked for a family getaway. Would stay again!!

Slightly precarious edge on fire pit, in the dark hard to see the hill side, so maybe a bit of light there or retaining wall, but we LOVED having a fire, AND watching the night sky and roasting marshmallows!

Cozy and so much character! Felt very welcoming and like home. The property is really well stocked and well equipped with everything you may need, inside and out. Lovely surroundings and conveniently close to the eastern entrance of Mount Rainier National Park.

We had an older family member staying with us who was not able to manage the spiral staircase, which is a bit tricky; not a big issue as it just meant she had to use the downstairs bedroom. Just something to keep in mind when considering sleeping arrangements, etc.

It was a home away from home! Lovely touches all over, and had everything we needed for the 3 nights we stayed … kitchen was well stocked with lots of condiments, cooking and BBQ items, etc. Super love the view from dining table … bonus was we saw the Northern lights from there!

Nothing!

Cozy, beautiful views. Cabin had a lot of supplies to make you feet at home.We made dinner and breakfast. It was very peaceful there

The driveway up to the cabin is quite steep with a sharp turn where you have to back up. The spiral stairs up to the loft are kind of treaturous. It's a bit scary to go up and down. The top railing is coming out from the wall, so be careful not to pull on it.

The cabin was so well equipped and had way more available than I would have expected. Very comfortable and cozy and my kids loved the staircase and having a whole loft floor to themselves. The grills and fire pit were a nice touch too and it was so relaxing to sit on the porch in the morning and enjoy a cup of coffee.

Very well designed space with everything we could possibly want. Great view, nice loft for our son, comfortable master bedroom. Easy distance to Mt Rainier and other hikes, etc. Town has all the basics.

Slightly scary driveway, but we figured it out.

This charming and cozy cabin sits right off of Rte 12 in Packwood. This is the most well equipped/stocked cabin/cottage we've ever stayed at. The host is so welcoming, from detailed pre-check in information on the property to check in process to post check-out wishes. We enjoyed dining in the living/dining/kitchen area with the large picture window that looks directly onto the foliage trees/mountains. Beds were super comfortable, though there were just 2 of us, but the cabin is large enough for a whole family, with additional beds/bedroom in the loft upstairs.

None. Everything was perfect.
